Mexican Chorizo Hash
This breakfast-for-dinner skillet gets heat from spicy Mexican chorizo. Don't stir the potatoes too much as they cook so they crisp in the pan.

My supermarket didn't have chorizo, so I used Portuguese sausage, Linguica, instead. I cooked the sausage first, took it out of the pan, then cooked the spinach, onions and peppers until the spinach wilted, added that to the sausage on the side. I then cooked the potatoes, to which I added fat free chicken stock to keep from burning on the bottom. Once done, I added all the remaining ingredients to the potatoes, mixed it, and cooked the eggs as directed. Note: I also added about a tablespoon of Goya Adobo all purpose seasoning to the lemon, onion, pepper mixture. This is a keeper for sure!
Really easy to make, and surprisingly popular for the whole family. Be sure to make extra or have a side dish if you're serving this as an entree; I made 1.5 recipe for 3 adults and 2 children (7 yrs old) and we ran out of food before everyone was full. A few notes: Definitely needs more chorizo than called for; I doubled it and that was about right. I drained the chorizo so it wasn't too greasy, though I suppose it would make a tasty (though fatty) oil for the veggies to cook in. I used frozen hash browns and followed package directions (longer cooking time than in this recipe) and served easy-over eggs on the side b/c I have one kid that despises them. We topped with shredded cheddar and cilantro. It's also really good with breakfast sausage.
So full of flavor (that might have been helped by using an entire package of chorizo, instead of just the 2 oz.) I always fail miserably at cooking hash browns, and this was really no exception - they stuck really badly. But even despite that, we loved this. We topped with a little shredded cheese, sour cream, and ho
This was a great one dish meal for brunch, very pretty and very tasty. My husband loves chorizo, and is the breakfast cook on weekends so he was in charge and said it was very easy to make. We cut it back to make two portions instead of 4, was very easy to do.
Very good, flavorful and easy!
I love breakfast for dinner and this was no exception!
Hated it. Not sure if I did something wrong, but I found it to be very bland. The manfriend said it was fair, but I think he just didn't want to hurt my feelings.
Made this for the first time today - really loved it. Only changes I'll make in the future will be to use twice as much chorizo and twice as much spinach. Eggs took more like 6 minutes, not 4. I used the diced style of breakfast potatoes and stirred them frequently to evenly cook them. I followed the advice of another reviewer, and used two pans - got the potatoes going in one, and while they cooked, I cooked chorizo, onions, spinach etc in another, then stirred those ingredients into the potatoes. Made for quick cooking time too. This is definitely a winner - - will be a great, fast, delicious breakfast when we have company stay!
I love this dish! I'm a huge fan of chorizo, eggs and hash browns, which can be a rather heavy meal, so I was happy to see that the recipe added spinach. I followed the recipe for the most part, adding and subtracting a little here and there, such as adding the whole package of hash browns rather than trying to save the little that wasn't called for in the recipe. The leftovers made a great encore performance later in the week. I'll definitely make this recipe again.
My husband and I both loved this breakfast-for-dinner! I julienned a couple of russets instead of using the refrigerated hash and it turned out great.
Outstanding - hubby and I loved it and my 2 year old ate his entire portion. Minor changes included: 1. Using 2 pans at the same time saved on clean up and time. Pan 1 held hash browns; Pan 2 held sausage/veggie mix. At the end I dumped the mix into the hash and cracked the eggs. 2. Using 2 mild chicken italian sausages chopped small (toddler). 3. Added 1 tbsp of cumin. 4. Coarsely chopped spinach and red pepper for toddler. 5. Used four eggs, but stirred them into mix so cooked through as scrambled. 6. Dollop of sour cream on top of each portion. YUMMY!!
Substituted sweet potato hash browns for the refrigerated hash browns; otherwise made as directed. Absolutely delicious. This one is in the permanent rotation.
Wonderful flavors. I cut it in half for 2 and then used 4 eggs--made a nice dinner with an avocado/pear salad.
This was great! We made it exactly as written. We used fresh chicken chorizo sausage from Whole Foods as well as their frozen hash browns. We will definitely make this again, and it goes great with hot sauce.
Delicious! Added more of everything to serve 5 for a special Sunday morning breakfast. Served with corn tortillas & mimosas.
